Notes
Note #1 – vBulletin custom user profile fields stored in wp_usermeta.
The following custom profile fields are imported into wp_usermeta and as you build your community with WordPress and bbPress, maybe BuddyPress also this should help down the road in converting these values to whatever plugins and profile extensions you decide to use.

ICQ – 『_bbp_vbulletin_user_icq』
MSN Messenger – 『_bbp_vbulletin_user_msnm』
Skype』_bbp_vbulletin_user_skype』
